Metadata record for data expected ASAC Project 2382 See the link below for public details on this project. This entry contains: Locations for sampling sites for ASAC project 2382 on voyage 3 of the Aurora Australis in the 2004/5 season, collected between December and February of 2004/5; CTD bottle-derived seawater viscosity data and CTD bottle-derived in vivo fluorescence data. There are four spreadsheet files in this download file. Each spreadsheet file contains several worksheets. 1) I9_Stations.xls: Transect 1 (CLIVAR I9 = 'I9') station and sampling details: CTD stations, CTD profiles, Surface samples. 2) PET_Stations.xls: Transect 2 (Kerguelen Plateau and Princess Elizabeth Trough = 'PET') station and sampling details: CTD stations, CTD profiles. 3) Viscosity.xls: Viscosity data. 4) Fluorescence.xls: In vivo fluorescence data. For all files -999 = missing data A word document details the sampling protocols for viscosity and in vivo fluorescence. Note: ASAC project 2382 operates in direct collaboration with ASAC project 2596 (Three-dimensional microscale distribution and production of plankton populations).

Note: ASAC project 2596 operates in direct collaboration with ASAC project 2382 (Impact of viscosity on the morphology and swimming behaviour of motile bacterioplankton, phytoplankton and protozooplankton). There are four spreadsheet files in this entry. Each spreadsheet file contains several worksheets. 1) Transect 1 (CLIVAR I9 = 'I9') station and sampling details: CTD stations, CTD profiles, Surface samples. 2) Transect 2 (Kerguelen Plateau and Princess Elizabeth Trough = 'PET') station and sampling details: CTD stations, CTD profiles. 3) 10 x 10 Flow Cytometry (FCM) data, derived from a two-dimensional microscale sampling device. 4) FluoroMAP profiles. These files contain the following data: Count Date Time Pressure (milliVolts)/Depth Chlo Depth - is the pressure in milli-Volts (mV) which is can be converted to depth in meters using the manufacturers calibration, Where, depth (m) = 0.00149 * (depth (mV)) -7.5 Chlo= is short for chlorophyll fluorescence and has arbitrary units (a.u.) For all files -999 entry = missing data A word document details the sampling protocols for FCM, 10 x 10 samples and FluoroMAP profiles. See the link below for public details on this project.
